Neither did the rain dampen the spirits of the volunteers, vets or technicians on hand to perform the surgeries.

Sixty-four cats and dogs had their spay/neuter surgery and, in many cases, received needed vaccinations and testing. It was a great success for both the animals, their families and the volunteers, vets and techs.

For the rest of this year, there will be TWOSpay Days each month. They will be on Saturday or Sunday at Dallas Animal Services. Dallas residents living in the zip codes below can get their pets spayed or neutered and vaccinated for FREEas part of Big Fix For Big D.

You MUSTlive in one of the following zip codes and you MUSTmake an appointment in advance. October Spay Days will be Sunday, October 7, and Saturday, October 27.

I noticed that this says FREE. A little confusing to me since it is part of Big Fix. Is MAC subsidizing the $20 co-pay? The spay-neuter programs are confusing. BUT I am so happy they are doing them and getting results.
